Taavetti is unwell again

Thanks Zorst.
Somehow I'd prepared for this so many times already, I miss him of course and keep getting all the memories in my mind's eye, but I'm not doing too badly. Halonen seems to be doing much worse than I, really. She just sits there, eye stalks at him, her face curled up. She pulls her eye pupils in, puts them back again, pulls them in, puts them back again so her eyes look very weird. Tauno has gone to sit in a bath.

I'm really glad Taavetti gave me so many absolutely gorgeous baby snails. He lives on.

Ok, after some hours of looking really sad, Halonen uncurled her face and started to very slowly eat him. That's good, really, he's still giving something to his friend. I just hope she won't rasp at his shell so I can keep it.
